Ground Turkey Recalled Due to Contamination

If you were planning on making healthier spaghetti bolognese or turkey burgers this week, you might want to hold off. Cargill Meat Solutions Corporation announced Wednesday that it is voluntarily recalling 36 million pounds of ground turkey that may be contaminated with salmonella.

The suspected turkey was processed in Springdale, Arkansas from February 20 through August 2, and may have killed one person and sickened as many as 76 people in 26 states, CNN.com reports.

If you've bought ground turkey, you are urged to return any opened or unopened packages for a full refund. Other turkey products from Springdale are said to be OK as well as products from any of the company's other turkey processing facilities.
